Warcraft causes college dropouts, lonely Friday nights

An FCC commissioner informs us why so many young people drop out of college: World of Warcraft.

Although I attended college pre-Warcraft, we did have a good number of people who took up valuable space in computer labs playing text-only swords-and-sorcery games (I’m that old), who would occasionally shatter the silence and interrupt me procrastinating on a theory of rhetoric paper by exclaiming something like “You stole my FIRE RING!” We had a name for these people. But, apparently, they all dropped out, so computer labs are safe again.
